Indoor ashram photograph of a long-haired figure in an orange-brown unstitched robe with a thick red and yellow-beaded garland, seated with back partly to camera and reaching forward to take a stack of white papers from a young woman in an orange and yellow sari with a rudraksha mala. She holds the papers on a tray draped with a yellow cloth. Behind her, another woman in an orange sari with glasses and a mala carries a tray, and women in white and orange stand in the background beside a wall-mounted air conditioner and a pedestal fan. Probable Swamiji appearance cues: long swept-back hair, saffron robe and ornate beaded garland, receiving the magazine launch copies in a satsang setting.
